Comparative Analysis at Converting Electric Vehicles

In this paper, the specifics of the converting automobiles into electric vehicles are analyzed. Their parameters, characteristics and specific features that must be taken into account are systematized: the mass of the vehicle (only with driver and full), its frontal area and coefficient of aerodynamic resistance, the expected speed of movement according to the purpose of the vehicle; the model must be corrosion resistant and structural defects are not noticeable on the car. A comparative analysis of four automobiles to be converted to electric vehicles was carried out: Zastava 750 CE, Audi A2 L3, Skoda Fabia, Audi 80 Quattro. The required traction forces of the drive wheels are calculated at speeds from 10 km/h to 120 km/h, as well as the forces of the aerodynamic resistance and the rolling resistance. The advantages and disadvantages of each of the studied cars are determined. The most suitable automobile for conversion is selected. Suitable components of the asynchronous drive are selected for it.
